She Was Very Insecure About Her Appearance
Dusty spent a lot of her time in the US shooting in the woods in the South and encountering the self-claimed bass-player who “taught Elvis how to do karate.” But her life started to unravel at the very time she was experiencing her greatest success. While Dusty stretched the music business to its limit, she also stretched the limits of sanity in her misbehavior.
She may have been instantly recognizable with her blonde beehive, black eye make-up, and with all the glitz and glamor, but she was majorly insecure. Despite her star status, Dusty was inherently shy and rarely went to any of the popular parties and nightclubs of the ‘60s. She was deeply insecure about her appearance, having hated her knees and chin.
